UNSTABLE Instrumentation for the IOP and Data Considerations

Radiosondes (~270) Radiosonde (fixed - WMI) –Terry Krauss needs expendables Radiosonde (fixed – MSC tech services) –HAL (students, etc.) Radiosonde (mobile – CRD) –Two portable antennas but one trailer –One could be fixed –Two people per mobile so…Craig, 1 tech, student, maybe one more (on call for 3 weeks) Radiosonde (mobile – CRD) Radiosonde (mobile – U of M) –Sonds indpendent of MARS (John’s student(s), HAL student?) Tethersonde (EC) –HAL UHF Wind / RASS (EC) – set up and leave alone

Surface Stations 10x ATMOS (EC) –Sills, Taylor 4x ATMOS (York U)? –Sills, P. Taylor Foothills Climate Array (U of C) –Marshall? Sampling frequency concerns (visit stations) need people to help (students?) – only change targeted stations? 3x FOPEX (CRD) –Smith, HAL (will change sample frequency – Geoff will need to visit) 1x AMMOS (EC) –Sills, Taylor 1x Strong Mobile – Geoff and other 2x Campbell Stations (U of M)? –Hanesiak, Sills

Profilers / PW MARS (U of M – AERI, Sodar, Profiling Radiometer) –Julian and student,Hanesiak Additional Profiling Radiometer (EC)? –Tech from MRD or PYR for set-up Water Vapour Profiling Radiometer (U of C) –At Stony Plain this summer for testing? Need coefiicients but already available? –Skone, need some cash Water Vapour Profiling Radiometer (U of M) –Hanesiak 1100 (U of C) –Skone GPS PW (U of C – fixed and 3-4 ‘spares’) –Skone, More cash GPS PW (CRD) –Smith (at limestone) SAT profiles – cloudsat, others – R. Stewart

NWP Milbrandt Goodson, Toth, Burrows Need CMC contact and management support! Re archiving, etc. Erfani Adams re WRF, NMS

Forecast/Nowcast Support PASPC / RSD support to IOP Dedicated nowcast support?

Aircraft Possibilities NRC Twin Otter WMI Aircraft with AIMMS Instrumentation (P, T, RH – only at the moment) Charter Aircraft with AIMMS Instrumentation Unmanned Aerial Vehicles AMS (Air Mechanical Systems?)

Radar WHK (partially) XSM WMI
